have my hand on the ball but that's not possession of the ball. you are clearly possessing the ball. >> sure. >> it's not the taste where we are both together like this and it's a wrestling match. >> it was clear in the video. >> pretty clear in the video. let's take a look at the other stuff the officials messed up here because first of all this is pass interference. golden shoves sam shield right in the back just to get to the ball. >> i'm the packer. >> sew has the ball. you are the packer guy. now i'm the guy on the bottom trying to reach in and wrestle the ball away. it's hard to see because you don't have a great angle it's not close-up about clearly lacks like the packer player jennings had the ball. for simultaneous possession rule 8 section 3 article 1 item 5 pass caught simultaneously by 2 eligible opponent and both players retain it the ball belongs to the passing team. it's not simultaneous if a player gains control first and
